stupid speakers

[andalayyeehah]

i just put sum 17.5cm infiniti co-axial speakers in the front of my micra, and they are crackly as fook wen any bass goes thru them (which i understand)

but, whenever i turn a corner or go over a speed bump,m they just go off completley :S both of them

any ideas?

also, they are too deep for the holes so they are held in by 1 screw till i can get spacers or summit sorted out lol

first of all get em fitted correctly. eg sat in the holes proper. Make some MDF rings if u have to. 2nd if they crackly they may be blown. on a set of my vibes i got i touched the cone and they would work. let go of cone and they would stop working. They were crackling too when touched.. So because they were brand new i took em back and got replacements.

 

[andalayyeehah]

rite, mine are 2nd hand, so i cant take them back really lol

fitted them proper today, well kinda, they are bodged in with 2 screws, guna look into sum rings soon see if thats any better, they still dont like bass goin thuru them :S dunn why, but apart from that they sound good now, and it was a loose connection making them go off sorted today

If they dont like Bass going through them, then the previous owner might have really had them going hard. Thus, wanting to get rid of them

They could be blown or just very heavily used. Buying new is always a better option.

so shud co axials be ok to cope with bass?

i dnt know the first thing about ICE lol, my knowledge is strictly engines and bodywork, so im startig to think ive been had

i only buyed them coz they was cheap :S lol

if your expecting the same bass to come from them as a 12" sub then they will sound bad when u ramp up volume/bass. need a sub

You're more likely to be clipping the amp in your HU. The standard speakers in my K11 could handle a reasonable level of bass off my HU before sounding bad.
